Review of Smokin' Aces (2006) by Jen R — 21 Jun 2012

Highly underrated! This movie is one Carnahan's best, this wacky gonzo comedy action-thriller never gets old! I've never been a big admirer of Ben Affleck but his performance wasn't as awful as usual even though he only lived the first 20 minutes or so.

The first hour of the film introduces the audience to the assassins and the hit while the last half hour of the film is one crazy action moment after another. Even though other films have done this sort of style before it was still very unique visually which adds a new spin on the somewhat over used style.

Chris Pine made a name for himself in my book with this one. This movie blew me away!
